back to you | fillie

ch. 7

sadie and the rest of her friends waited anxiously for finn and millie to arrive.

it had been a day since she and finn talked. and kissed. but the others didn't need to know that. all they knew is that finn and millie were going to be in the same room with the same people and not actually act like they don't exist for the first time in forever. (omg run-on sentence sorry 🥺)

instead of sadie's house, they were at grace's cute house. it was a very pastel house, each wall was either baby blue or white- except for graces room which was yellow and decorated heavily with fake plants and vines hanging everywhere.

a knock at the door startled all of them, "i'll get it!" rowan said since she was in the kitchen making some lemonade for everyone.

she walked to the door and became face to face with a familiar raven haired boy standing there. "finn, hi, how are you?" she said, opening the door wider to let him in. "i'm good thanks." he said with a smile.

he was very good.

"where's everyone?" he asked, tilting his head. "oh they're up in grace's room. down the hallway and to the right." rowan told him, finn nodding which made his curls bounce.

he checked the time, 2:15. his friends told him that everyone should be at grace's around 2:00-2:20, so he was hoping that meant he could see millie even though he saw her yesterday.

before walking to grace's room he took his shoes off and placed them next to the door and before walking off he heard a knock. "i'll get it rowan." the short haired brunette smiled at him as she put ice cubes in the cups.

finn opened the door, quickly seeing millie's cute little water fountain hair style and her bright smile.

he immediately became all nervous, "h-hey millie." millie smiled nicely, "hi finn."

she stepped past him, taking her shoes off and hanging her mini backpack on a hook, greeting rowan and walking to grace's room. finn followed closely behind, "uh, mills?" he said, making her jump because she didn't know he was behind her.

"y-yes?" he blushed, "about yesterday-" millie cut him off, "it's fine finn, i probably would've done the same thing if i were in your position. no need to make anything awkward between us." she stated, surprising finn.

he crookedly smiled at her as she walked into grace's room. he shook his head, walking in as well.

"ah, you finally decided to show up!!" sadie teased, pulling her friends into a very uncomfortable hug. the two acted like they weren't being hugged at the same time though.

to not make everything awkward of course.

"sooo, i was thinking we could all go out and watch a movie or something." noah said as rowan entered the room, hanging everyone a lemonade.

"thanks rowan." caleb said, giving her a smile. rowan smiled back and took a seat in grace's beanbag. "what movie? there's nothing good in theaters right now." noah said.

"we could just watch a movie here." grace said, getting up and walking into the living room. gaten rolled his eyes, "cant we go to the mall or like the park." he asked, following everyone else into the living room. "or maybe do something productive?" sadie said, gaten nodding.

"we could like go to the fair." gaten said, making millie and finn tense.

the fair.

sadie noticed this, "ooor we could go to the mall and then get lunch after." everyone nodded, "that's a good idea, but there's one problem." caleb said, "and what's that?"

"i'm like broke...." he said which made sadie laugh. "we don't have to buy a bunch of stuff." millie scoffed, "then what's the point of going?? the mall is for shopping isn't it??" she said in a playful tone.

"you got a better idea, brown?" sadie asked with a smirk. "n-no." millie mumbled. "ok then! we're going to the mall. everyone get your shit and come outside because we're taking my car." caleb said, not wanting the girls to start fighting, even if it was just play fighting.

********************************

"gaten! what the hell?!" sadie screamed, running after the light haired boy who had just spilled salad dressing all over her shirt. "IT WAS AN ACCIDENT I SWEAR DON'T KILL ME PLEASE." he said as he ran around the table.

"guys oh my god stop! you're making a scene!!!" finn said, grabbing sadie and pulling her away from gaten. "dude let go! i'm going to get him back for this." caleb walked over and grabbed sadie's hand, dragging her away from the table and to a store where she could get a new shirt. "we'll be right back!!" he yelled.

gaten sat back down, grabbing a fry and putting it in his mouth. "ok, she's gone. you can tell us if you actually did it on accident." noah said, "bro! it was an accident, why the hell would i spill dressing on her on purpose? you know how 'dangerous' she gets when she's mad." he said with a chuckle.

noah sighed in defeat, "man. you're no fun." gaten chuckled again.

a few minutes later sadie and caleb were back and sadie was wearing a black crop top with a pocket in the top corner. she sat down, huffing and crossing her arms. millie gave her a look, making her burst out laughing. "ok! ok! i'm not mad." she said after she caught her breath.

millie smiled in triumph. sadie could never stay mad over something as little as that. "so, what do you guys want to to after we finish?" rowan asked, checking the time.

it was now 4:48 and the friends had been out and about for almost three hours, laughing, video taping stupid moments, and screaming out random song lyrics in different stores.

"we can go to the park or maybe the beach." noah said, sitting up in his chair from his slouchy position.  finn and millie perked up at the mention of the park.

a place full of memories.

"yes, let's go to the park." finn and millie said at the same time, making everyone almost freak out. they just started for a second, and then agreed.

all of them finished eating and got in the car, jamming out to their favorite songs, enjoying themselves.

too bad school was starting up again soon.
